  1. A feature that allows the user who sent the message by "Send Shared Link

    Share > Shared Link - Send Shared Link "ON" > Messages (optional)
    A feature that allows the user who sent this to check the messages sent in the past.
    e.g. The message is output to the report.

    Currently, there is no corresponding feature, so we are thinking of adding my own (sender's) email address to the recipient.

    not planned  ·  katiele responded

    We are re-designing the managed users page and will focus on adding advanced filtering of managed users by status as a follow up. Right now, releasing the re-design will be our first priority, so filtering by status is not on the near-term
    (6 month) roadmap. We will revisit this after we release the new page.

  4. User management settings in mobile app

    We would like user management access within the mobile iOS app. We would like to be able to reset a password on the fly as well as deactivate someone quickly if we are not near our computer.

    Thank you for the suggest! This is not an area in which we will invest.

    App usage would be sporadic and would not drive engagement as much as dedicating our resources towards our existing apps.

  5. Shield classification - Admin console visibility and user reporting

    1) "Whenever any user tries to apply the classification, Box console is not able to tell the owner which users would be affected due to this."

    2) "As well as while adding external users for collaboration on a classified folder where external users have this limitation, It would be great if the console can let the owner know about it, Otherwise he would think all should work but in actual it's just not enough, He has to whitelist the external domain under classification."

  6. Able to get Box user ID by querying the username

    Hi, currently in order to find a box user id for ONE user, we need to use
    https://developer.box.com/reference#get-all-users-in-an-enterprise
    to get ALL users and then filter for the specific user.

    If would be nice if we can simply query a user's box user id by the username.

    There is an optional parameter called `filter_term` which can be used to retrieve a user on the basis of the name or login. See link below and a snippet from the dev docs.
    https://developer.box.com/reference/get-users/#param-filter_term

    `filter_term`
    Limits the results to only users who’s name or login start with the search term.

    For externally managed users, the search term needs to completely match the in order to find the user, and it will only return one user at a time.

  7. Ability to sort folders that appear in the "Select folders this user can access" view

    The current view includes both parent and sub-folders. We would like a method for choosing Favorites or such that allows control of that window's view.

    As we have a large number of folders, the current view is unmanageable and searching is cumbersome.

  9. researching by a user external collaboration invite status

    researching by a user external collaboration invite status

    Hope can be visualization of past collaboration history.
    Usability will improve if each user can do it without the administrator having to go to see it when it is on hold.

  10. Allow Shared folders to be owned by Domain ( vs user)

    Similar to Google's Shared Drives, allowing admins to set ownership of a shared drive at the domain level vs user (human or service) would minimize the need for Service Accounts or changing ownership as users leave the company.

  11. Function to disable the display of the login authentication screen for Box for Microsoft Office co-editing features on a per-user basis.

    The following is a request regarding the seamless login feature.
    https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/44224534926355

    To avoid displaying the login authentication screen, we understand that enabling the co-editing feature for only certain users in the tenant settings will resolve the issue.
    However, if the number of users enabling or disabling the co-editing feature increases, managing user and group additions or removals through tenant settings each time becomes extremely cumbersome and impractical.
    Implementing this feature enables end users to handle issues immediately on their own, reducing the burden on administrators.

    下記シームレスログイン機能に関する要望です。
    https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/44224534926355

    ログイン認証画面を表示させないためには、テナント設定で一部のユーザーにのみ共同編集機能を有効にすれば回避できると認識しています。
    但し、共同編集機能を有効/無効にするユーザーが増えたりした場合に都度テナント設定からの制限ではユーザーやグループの出し入れ等の操作が非常に手間となり現実的ではありません。
    本機能を実装することでエンドユーザー自身で即時に対応できるようになり管理者の負担を減らすことができます。

  12. Prefill company, email, name and date field in the document automatically when BOX a user that is connected signs a document

    Some people, have a lot of documents to sign . It will greatly speed up the process if some fields are prefilled in the document to sign ,if the signer is connected to his BOX account when signing the document: name, date, company, email. That information is available in BOX

    Today, they have to fill those fields manually. Only the signature and initials can be adopted. It is hindering adoption

    To make the signing experience smoother and more efficient, we’re introducing the Remember Signers Data feature.

    With this update, after completing an initial signature request, your Name, Title, and Company will be automatically pre-filled the next time you sign, saving time and reducing repetitive input. This enhancement is designed to create a faster, more seamless signing experience for frequent signers.


    Let us know if you have any other ideas or feature requests that we can build to create a better Box Sign experience for you and your customers.

  13. Support for User-Specific Folder Visibility in HUB

    We have use cases where we need to display only the folders a user has access to within a specific directory—such as a users directory in root directory. Currently, the only way to achieve this with HUB is by creating a separate HUB for each user, which is difficult to manage and scale. A feature that allows displaying only the folders a user has permission to access would be much easier to maintain and could support multiple users through a single HUB configuration.

  14. Training - User Essentials Class 3.1

    Your self-paced 'User Essentials Class 3.1' does not set itself to 'Complete' when the class is finished. It never shows up as a completed class in one's transcript. At the end, there is a 'Next' button that, when clicked, does nothing. It does not advance anywhere, so the class never 'completes'. Please fix this.

  15. Open file from UI Elements without approval

    Ability to open a file from UI Elements Open With with Box Edit without being prompted to Approve/Deny to proceed.

    Currently, every time a file is opened from UI Elements, Box Edit displays the prompt and asks the user to Approve/Deny before the user can start locally opening and editing the file. This adds friction to user experience, and we want the option to not display this prompt and auto-approve the file open from UI Elements

  16. allow admins to access new user account without onboarding

    when a new user is added to our Enterprise a new user onboarding workflow is started. As an admin I would like to access the new users account without being hampered by the onboarding workflow. I would like to leave the workflow for the new user to step through but I can't get to their 'all files' if that hasn't happened.

  17. Add a flag to enable/disable end-user collaboration emails

    Currently, collaboration emails are only sent to the service account. Admins should be able to enable/disable whether their end users also receive collaboration emails when added to a Box for Salesforce integration folder, as workflows may depend on being notified that this folder exists/has been shared with an end user.

  18. External User Box Access Workflow

    We'd like a modification to the external user workflow and change the text of "Not a part of <Company Name> Company"

    Many external users click the "Part of <Company Name>" button as they assume incorrectly this is the proper path as they are doing business with the Company.

    There is room for improvement on either the current text, addition of clarifying text, or a modified workflow.

  19. Need warning message when different filename/extension is uploaded using "Upload New Version"

    User can upload a new version with different filename/extension from the current version using "Upload New Version" feature. User should be prompted when this happens as this is often the user error.

  20. New role that can be changing other collaborator role but doesn't have right to do new invite.

    Would like to a user role that cannot add collaborators but can change the privileges of each collaborator who has already collaborated, it is not possible to invite new users, but a user who can change existing roles is possible.
    Allow more granular permission collaboration.
